11,368 PointsHi Amanda! It seems you are adding the asked margin (2.5%) to your p elements inside your a elements inside your li elements...if you want to add margin to your li elements inside the element with the gallery ID you must target the li like this:
#gallery li {
margin: 2.5%;
}

gallery li {
float: left; width: 45% {
